Well I started striping everything for my 4 link and frame shorten. I am putting a short bed on my 2500 to make a one of a kind truck as far as I know. Here are some picks of what I did while I was at work today(bonus to get paid and play!)
Waiting on one set of 4 link bars, and my pan hard bar. I have almost everything else including a fuel cell, high flow fuel pump, and also got my valves in today!
On to the picks.

 

Kick ***. Get rid of that long bed!! For sure keep the pics coming, I like 4 link and ladder bar builds.

 

Up

Down

This is laying frame. and the rear has 13" of lift. I have side pipes on the way to cover the gap between the rockers and the ground(gap is 3.5" pipes will cover 3 of it). The front is only 2 inches off but the rear behind the tires is still higher than I want. Not sure how I will get the rear body down but i will figure something out

The front is probably going to get reworked a bit so it will go higher and get just as low but I need to the lower bars and my pan hard for the rear before I am going to change the front.

 

schweet!

 

damn now thats a major project but came out looking clean as heel man.

 

That is awesome. Been considering doing that to mine. Do you happen to know if a sport side bed would work as well? Good luck on the rest of the build.

 

I hate step side beds so I would say no it won't work. Reality is there is no reason it wouldn't work.

Waiting on the pan hard bar and just a tiny bit more fabrication on the 4 link and it is done! Gotta get the fuel cell mounted and figure out what I am doing for the drive shaft. Not sure if I am going to a one piece or leaving the two piece. I will figure that out early this week and get the shaft made up either way.

 

Was expecting to see the super short, CC bed on there, would be crazy! Good job, what are you talking about, side pipes... Exhaust or step bars?

That's hot! Please tell me your truck is a diesel.
